or using plugins.
## Features
- Simple API to interact with the Stomp protocol
- Support for v1.2, v1.1 and v1.0 of the Stomp protocol
- Support for fallback options in case of WebSocket unavailable
- Browser and Node.js support
- Option to use STOMP over TCP
- Binary payload support
## Usage
### Browser

```
### NodeJS
```bash
$ npm install @stomp/stompjs ws
```
```javascript
import { Client } from '@stomp/stompjs';
import { WebSocket } from 'ws';
Object.assign(global, { WebSocket });
const client = new Client({
brokerURL: 'ws://localhost:15674/ws',
onConnect: () => {
client.subscribe('/topic/test01', message =>
console.log(`Received: ${message.body}`)
);
client.publish({ destination: '/topic/test01', body: 'First Message' });
},
});
client.activate();
```
